Storing image files on your computer can fast become disorderly and cluttered.

If you’ve only got just a few pictures—maybe several web images, perhaps some digital photos—it’s simple to keep a record of all of them. Though in the event you go beyond a particular point, everything just about spins out of control. Which means that more likely than not,you’ve got duplicates of images. And also considering the size of digital photo files nowadays, even a few extra copies could take up a lot more additional space on your hard drive or memory card.Wouldn’t it be nice if you could run through all that stuff once in a while and get rid of the extras?

VisiPics is a tool that can help you do just that. Although it can do a straight file comparison looking for matching files and checksums, it’s smart enough to take a look at your images in several different ways to see just how similar non-identical images are. Meaning that two versions of the same photo—maybe one cropped a certain way and the other not—are most likely going to show up as duplicates. You may then decide if you choose to keep both of them or not. And in order to make it easy, all suspected duplicates are displayed side-by-side so that you can make the final call.

One particular misconception to have about your PC is to believe that its gradual slowdown and growing lack of stability is due to its physical health – that the only choice is to keep it going for as long as is possible and then get a new computer. In actual fact,with the overwhelming majority of cases, system instability and slowness is as a result of the state of your Windows installation over time – reinstall Windows from scratch on a fresh formatted drive and your computer is returned to new.

Of course, the down side to all of this is that re-installing takes the best part of an uninterrupted day to accomplish. It’s definitely considerably better to extend the life of your present installation by keeping your PC well maintained. You can do this manually,or else you can decide on a program like MAGIX PC Check & Tuning 2011 to do the job for you.

Once running, MAGIX PC Check & Tuning 2011 consists of a group of features. To start with, there’s the PC Check utility, which is placed in the background conducting a variety of checks on an hourly schedule, alerting you to any possible challenges it discovers. Then there’s the “1-click quick maintenance” tool: click this to see a list of frequent maintenance tasks – tick the ones you need to do, click the button and leave the program to carry out the rest.

The final component is the main PC Check & Tuning tool itself,which happens to be where you take full power over the maintenance process. This comes with a large variety of tools – some integrated into the main program itself, others launched as separate standalone tools – and overlaps to some extent the other two components. However, the 3 make an effort to work together, providing you with a staggered solution to PC maintenance: the PC Check utility helps to keep a zealous observation on major areas of system health, while the one-click tool is designed to be run on a weekly basis. Finally, the main component is there for occasional use to quickly optimize and speed up your system. (more…)
